It’s time to start building your kites to fly in the Lincoln City Fall Kite Festival on Sept. 21 and 22. The festival is sponsored by the Lincoln City Visitor & Convention Bureau and the Lincoln City Kite Friendship Association. Among the activities included are dual line kite demonstrations, a kite boarding exhibition, a kite ballet competition, and Rokkaku battles. Beginner and expert flyers are invited to participate in the show and join in the fun. Awards will be given for best miniature kite, best theme kite, best sea life kite, best cartoon or fictional character, as well as other categories, and special attention is paid to kite shape as well as decoration. Throughout the weekend, kites of particular kinds will be flown in mass ascensions of red, white, and blue kites, theme kites, and sea life kites. This year’s theme is “Imagine,” and whatever you imagine can be flown! So choose your favorite dream and build it to fly at the D-River Wayside in Lincoln City. The flying is never finer than in Lincoln City, voted as the best kite flying location in North America by Kitelines Magazine.
